<p>I'm making more connections now locally after pushing for it, I'm getting some results - I went to an atheist meeting the other day at the pub, my husband looked after my kids, which was nice, and i've also started a short adult education course in philosophy in the hope of meeting some like minds - I think I'll hook up with the local humanists too, they seem nice.... like naturalists - atheists can be so angry... LOL</p>
